 ripened bulbs the first season from seed;

The Onion must have a clean and very rich soil. Use 

 well rotted manure freely, and get the seed in as early 

 as possible in the spring, no matter if it is cold and 

 unpleasant. If onions do not get a good growth before 

 hot, dry weather, the crop is sure to be a failure. Keep 

 the soil mellow and clear of weeds. Sow in shallow drills, 

 not less than a foot apart nor more than half an inch 

 deep. As onions grow on top of the ground, they may be 

 allowed to remain pretty thick, no matter if they crowd 

 eath other. In hoeing, destroy weeds and keep the ground 

 mellow; do not cover the young bulbs with earth. Harvest 

 while tops are partially green- and just after they fall 

 over. This is indication of proper maturity for best 

 storage results.

 grow to good size, ripening early and quite evenly. The 

 flesh is mild and sweet, the thin skin a clear silvery 

 white, of handsome appearance if the bulbs are gathered 

 as soon as ripened and carefully dried under shelter 

 away from the strong sunlight. "When seed is sown at 

 the rate of 20 to 25 pounds per acre, it makes bulbs of 

 suitable size and most desirable for pickling.
